I'm just curious how you can say this,
Quote:
From Saterdays bash the Maxamps 6500mah packs seemed to run about the same as the 4500mah Turnigys.

The turnigys's hadn't yet hit the lipo cutoff and when I charged them I put 4500 back in.

The Maxamps hit the LVC and took about 5000mah IIRC.
Then

They are fine...

Not the cheapest packs but they will do the job.
IMO a 6500mah battery, rated at more amps, performing about the same as 4500mah battery, would not be fine, if I paid the listed price on both of them, I'd have to say I'd be pissed off. .

You have to admit that the MA packs are overrated. If you hit the lvc and only put 5000mah back in those are not 6500 packs. How out of balance were they? Depending on how long the balanced on the charger you may not even have got 5000mah out of them, as balancing takes mah.

Getting 5000mah out of the turnigys sounds like they are underrated. What c rating are those packs?

So you will say that the turnigys are comparable to the Ma packs, performance wise?

BUT those pretty blue flames on the wrap make you want to buy more. And the chicks will dig your ride because of that great looking set of wraps you have in it even if the guy with the Turnegy (lower rated) packs just kicked your butt, because your LVC kicked in too soon.

SUPERMAXX YOUR LIFE.

IMO the lvc for any MA pack should be set at 4.19v to prevent puffing...

Glad you liked that, I am sure some will miss the humor and just see it as MA bashing...

To be honest I am sick of hearing about MA. Seems as much data and experince we pour out, people want to believe the hype and buy these packs... And then you get the "internet experts" who have only ever had 1 MA pack who they preach that MA are the best lipo... No experience, no idea. Just alot of BS. We need a smiley with a BS flag like the lol one. That way we can all just reply with that whenever the 300c super extra gangsta poop rated packs arrive, next week.

I am not saying they are the best packs, I'm not saying they are the best value, I'm not saying they are not over rated or v expensive.

I'm just saying they will work.

And yes the two packs were more out of balance than I would have liked. .2v iirc max to min cell

Stop being level headed & pragmatic, become a hater- you have more than enough reason to based on how poor the performance is on those lipos vs the listed ratings...

Man, I haven't been around in a while, and I'm still in awe of that chick in josh9mille's avatar. Please don't ever change this. :D

Between Arct1k and Neil, I think we have a good sample of the range of British diplomacy.
